MIS-Cast: How To Define "Type"-Two Weeks, Four Sessions

Ready to sink your teeth into your dream role, even if it doesn’t necessarily match your “type”? Are you tired of only working on material that aligns with your casting? Welcome to the “Miscast Class” - a workshop inspired by the infamous annual “Miscast” Gala in New York City. This class will provide the space and opportunity to tackle material you’ve been told isn’t “you” but you feel passionately drawn to. Students will stretch themselves, tap into their joy, and expand their repertoire and skillset in the process.

What To Bring
Water, clothes to move in, something to take notes with, and the courage to say what it is YOU want to play instead of letting others define it for you.
